I have shape layers with Wave Warp effects. I checked on Rasterize, Sample Quality and Antialiasing High, but the line are still really jaggy (see attached). I know I can “sort of” improve it by applying Gaussian Blur but I really want to keep clear and sharp edges. Is there any way at all to fix this? Please advise. Thank you a bunch in advance!!

Thank you for the thorough explanation. This seems like something like a newbie like me can handle. Thank you!

I am a super newbie to expressions. I want to move a long background composition horizontally continuously throughout the animation. Instead of manually move it in two key frames I want to use expressions so that I can add additional comps over it and match the speed easily. Please advise. Thank you so much in advance!

Hi, I am starting an animation project for a public screen display. I was told that the animation has to be 60fps, which I suppose it’s a standard for 4K display. I will be using a lot of my existing animation assets in AE comps that are 24fps. I am guessing that many of us are facing similar issues considering that the animation standard has…

It only shows up to 2022 and 2021 version. Any idea where I can go from there?

I am having a lot of issues with the current After Effects versions (22 and 23). I want to go back to the 21 version but it is not available on the Creative Cloud app. How/Where can I get it? Please advise. Thank you.

I see. This is more complex than I thought. I understand that AFter Effects is meant to be used to animate elements in the timeline and this sort of feature isn’t the main focus of the program. Inmy case my animation is a lot simpler than controlling this much of elements and I am wondering, how most animators organize comps when you animate…

Hi. Is it possible to tell After Effects to play a certain part of the comp marked with markers? For example, I create a face comp with various facial expressions such as smiling, crying, talking etc, and each is marked with markers (ex, smiling). Then I place the comp into the main comp and I can specify when to play “Smiling” or “Crying in the…

It doesn’t have to be perfect but I would like to avoid blurred images as most of the comps are bold shape layer images. I have about 50 comps.

Hi,

I have an AE project with several 50fps comps. I need to put them together to create an edit but in 24fps. What would be the best way to approach it?

I know this has been asked many times in the past but they are all from nearly 10 years ago and I want to see if there has been a better process.

Thanks a bunch in advance!

It works! The only thing is that when the face doesn’t rotate when it follows the Null. I normally use “Auto-Orient” to paths but it doesn’t seem to work with this. Is there a way to rotate the attached comp as the direction of the point changes?

Really?? Can you please explain a bit more? (Sorry, I am still a newbie…). Maybe some reference or tutorial? Thanks a bunch in advance!

Hi, I am making an animation of a worm moving its neck around. The worm body is made with a vector line(shape) and it’s animated in the path layer. I want to attach a face to the end of the moving/swinging neck but I don’t know how to do that except placing it manually frame by frame. I know if the shape of the neck doesn’t change I can simply use…
